Can you post about my contest on your blog? http://rishabhsood.net/win-an-apple-ipod-nano-8-gb/
powered by cformsII

I posted here.

Oct 2nd the winner announced, the winner is Viresh from health-figure.com. Everything is fine, everyone believe there is a real winner on his first contest winner cause the requirement was to submit review via email. Right after the announcement Rishabh contacting me again about his new contest, so soon right?, maybe he is in the fu*k*** rush of traffic and backlinks.

Can you blog about this contest on your blog! http://rishabhsood.net/contest-2-subscribe-to-my-feed-and-get-50-in-paypal/ In return you get a backlink from my blog ;)

So I posted his contest again Subscribe and Win $50 Cash at Rishabh Sood. (DAMN!)

Not long after I publish it, someone with nick name CHEATER! leave a comment:

"You know you should delete this post. Rishabh Sood’s last iPod contest is a hoax, there is no real winner. He can’t even provide the URL to the winning blog.

I search for the e-mail he provided at his about me page (sood1992@gmail.com) and I found out that he is cheating at Digital Point forums:

http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=743965
http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=715973

and now he has a $50 contest! WTF! Cheater."

This CHEATER!(thanks a lot Buddy) leave a comment on every entrant post with same comment including my blogging friend, Navjot Singh, the webmaster of Submit Your Contest.

Then Navjot made his investigation and found:

"Rishab’s Blog and that winner’s blog have same registrar…same webhosting….same city…..same country and even same pincode…..and were registered within 1 month of each other. So much for the striking similarity!"

"Even better part….phone number of winner and hosting company are same!!! Winner actually owns the hosting company and Rishab’s blog is hosted there. Clear case of we being fooled! Time to break ice!"

For more detail about this you can check Navjot post, Another Scamster is in the making with 2 contests.
I've check the domains too and My Opinion: Same as Navjot,

We Are Being FOOLED by New Scammer Artist, Rishabh Sood!!

Rishabh Sood is the owner of health-figure.com (winner of 'his' iPod contest), virtusohost.com and rishabhsood.net! you can take a look at this thread http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=715158 so he is not giving the prize to anybody.

Now he take down all his contest post, you can not find any his contest post link mentioned here on his blog. All comment are under moderation now.

If you have any links and blog post about Rishabh Sood, you better remove it.

Nice call out, all for $50 huh. Not really worth the hassle of setting up the whole house of cards for that.

Owner of SYC is the main thing.. he did everything to ruin my life.. I was thinking not to expose this to anyone but now its gone upto a limit

Nspeaks.com and submityourcontest.com are scam

Yeah, but it’s very weird if Navjot put his name (SYC with different domain and email) on Rishabh post asking $200. lol. Why should he do that. Hahaha.
What do you think, Yan?


2008-10-14 13:26:55

Pada pendapat saya, ini hanya membuang masa kita saja…

Biarkan saja, siapa salah, siapa betul?
Apa rugi kita kita? Apa untung kita kita?

Well, looking at the IP address of SYC who asked for $200, we should give Rishabh the benefit of doubts..provided he could give us one good reason why would anyone play such a joke on him?

Also, it’d be interesting to see what Navjot has to say about this too..
